Greetings, Lori, and welcome to planDisney! Your trip is so close, and it's almost time to start scheduling those Lightning Lane attractions, if you're planning on purchasing
Lightning Lane Passes. In fact, that may be why you've come to us with this question. I'm happy to help you with it.
The
My Disney Experience Mobile App is the best way to set your attraction preferences. One thing to know is that you need valid theme park admission for the date you wish to set preferences on. As long as you're all set there, here's how to do it.
Once you have your app open, click the three horizontal lines at the bottom and select "My Plans." You'll see dates across the top, so scroll all the way over until you see "+ Add a Day." Click that, and you'll see a calendar pop up. Here is where you'll select the day and park you want to add preferences to. Hit "Continue," and add the members of your party you're sharing plans with before selecting "Continue" again. From there, a list of Lightning Lane attractions will pop up for you to choose your priorities. This will be super helpful to have when it's time to book those Lightning Lanes because your preferred attractions will show up first on the list so you can grab those as quickly as possible. Once you've set your priorities, hit "Continue" again, and you'll have an opportunity to further personalize your day. After you've finished one day, you can go back in and complete the process for each day of your trip.
I recommend that you do this before it's time to purchase and schedule Lightning Lanes so you're ready to go. Sometimes precious seconds can make a big difference in the options and times available to you.
Lori, I hope you have a magical time during your
Walt Disney World vacation. Please visit us again if you have any other planning questions we can help with.
Let your dreams guide you!
Melanie
